Art Every Day

God likes art.

That's the part

My parents would ignore.

God likes art,

And I make art.

That's what God likes me for.

Julia Cameron, The Artist's Way

I have decided to join Leah and many others in "Art Every Day", where you post something, anything, creative, every day for the month of November. I am a day late starting, but maybe the time difference will work in my favour here!

Also, I have cheated and posted a colour pencil sketch of some cheerful and gorgeous day lilies I did a while back. Today's artwork was attempted but not successful. Not a good start, I know, but as Scarlett said, tomorrow is another day!

By the way, my mother and father always supported and encouraged me totally in my creativity and I love them for it. I chose the poem because I loved the spirit of creating art, simply because you were meant to and because you love it.

Day lillies! Awesome! Sorry things didn't work out for you on Day One - not every day can be a successful art day, unfortunately. I love that your parents encouraged you and that you have quite a cheering section ... consider me to be one them, my friend!

I like your day lillies even if they weren't done yesterday. ;)Thanks for your comment on my day one drawing. Yep I need to get over the perfection thing.. thanks for pointing that out. ;)Welcome to the Art Everyday Month.
